UBISOFT® LAUNCHES RACQUET SPORTS

The First Multisport Racquet Game for Nintendo Wii

Today Ubisoft announced a new addition to its sports portfolio
with Racquet Sports, a multisport game that includes tennis, ping pong,
badminton, squash and beach tennis. Developed for Nintendo Wii, the game
delivers an engaging and interactive experience for the entire family.
Compatible with Wii MotionPlus and Ubisoft's Motion Tracking Camera for Nintendo
Wii, players will receive a highly realistic and personalized gameplay
experience. Players will experience easy-to-use controls that precisely simulate
their movements and be able to play in multiple gameplay modes, from party to
championship mode. Racquet Sports is scheduled to be released in North America
in March 2010.

Racquet Sports engages players in 40 rich graphical
environments in worldwide locations including an underwater reef, a Moroccan
palace, a New York loft, and a fan-filled stadium. The multiplayer feature in
Racquet Sports allows the entire family to play cooperatively with each other or
to compete against each other at the same time. In addition, users will have the
ability to customize their character's body and clothing with different looks
and accessories.

"Ubisoft and Nintendo continue to reach new gamers with
innovative casual experiences that push the industry forward,” said Adam
Novickas, U.S. director of brand marketing at Ubisoft. "As racquet sports are
some of the most popular sporting activities throughout the world, we are
excited to bring a realistic interactive game experience for the entire family.”

Racquet Sports offers unprecedented realism and pinpoint
gameplay mechanics bringing every serve, swing and backhand to life while
replicating the experience in the comfort of the living room.
